When hubby‘s working late, I like a cup of #tea to tide me over until dinner. #fortheloveofbookmarks

Yes that‘s a teabag tag and string as a built in bookmark.

Nute The teabag tag as the bookmark….what a nice touch to the design of this book! (edited) 3y

A nice cup of English Breakfast tea to start out my day. I love the cardinals on this mug. I believe that the little things in life matter the most.

GypsyKat I‘m drinking the same tea right now! 5y

Lreads @JoScho I do, too! There has been one little brown bird with patches of red at my bird feeder outside. I noticed he was pecking at the glass of the feeder trying to get to the seed inside it instead of eating what was in the tray right at his feet! 🙃😄 5y
Lreads @GypsyKat It‘s my favorite! Do you have a favorite tea? 5y
GypsyKat @QuietlyLaura I drink a cup of Bigelow English Breakfast tea every morning, so that‘s probably my favorite. But I‘m also a huge fan of their Orange Spice herbal tea! 😋 5y
Lreads @GypsyKat Bigelow has my other favorite tea: French Vanilla black tea. It smells and tastes so good! I also like that it comes in decaf so I can drink it in the evening. 5y
GypsyKat @QuietlyLaura Oh man! I used to drink that one all the time! So good! 5y
CouronneDhiver You‘re right. That‘s lovely 😊 5y
LauraBeth I love your mug - cardinals are the best 5y
Lreads @Crazeedi @LauraBeth Thanks! The mug is actually from Cracker Barrel. 5y

Thanks for hosting this fun #harneyteagiveaway @umbrellagirl 😊💕☕
I've never actually had this tea brand before but the chocolate coconut flavor has me thinking i must try some sounds deelish!
My fave tea flavors i have on hand always lady grey, peach, breakfast teas, apple cinnamon & holiday blends are always fun.

umbrellagirl Those all sound yummy. Thanks for entering 💙☕️ 5y
esurient They have a peppermint herbal that's my very favorite. (Not shown in your picture.) 5y
umbrellagirl @esurient This was just what I have in my personal stash. I‘ll choose something nice for the winner based on their preferences from the website. 5y
esurient @umbrellagirl Sounds fun, and that's a lovely stash. 5y

@Readergrrl so so sorry for the delay, been difficult getting to the post office but finally this is going out. Sorry also for the big box but it was cheaper to ship it this way then in a smaller non-flat rate box. #teabirds #teaswap

Readergrrl Oh, I‘m so excited to get it! No problem about time! It has been a very busy spring for me too! Can‘t wait to see what book you chose!! 6y

It seems like a staple for #LitsySwaps is tea, so I thought I‘d put a little thing together.
1. I lean towards spicy teas, but I like fruity too.
2. Tea bags - less mess
3. Probably green tea or black tea.
4. Cinnamon
5. Jasmine

Great little questionnaire by @jenniferw88 for #MugLove
1. Both- but I don't actually have a tea infuser 😂
2. Both- I can't taste a difference, but maybe caffeinated to keep me awake at work 👍
3. Any black tea and I love berry flavours too 🍓
4. Not a fan of minty teas 🍃

As a side note, @jenniferw88 thank you so much for the Christmas card- I will be writing mine this weekend 😁

@TheKidUpstairs - a great swap you've organised! 💖

Desperate Australian, lover of David‘s tea seeks Canadian best friend to exchange notes, cards, bookish chat and treat exchange. A lover of Australian treats preferable - only need occasional tea bags sent - please keep my David‘s tea dream alive . In seriousness - there is so much awfulness in the world this seems trivial but I say find small joy and a Canadian PenPal would be amazing. If you are game let me know

8little_paws I can help as least as long as I live in Chicago. We have David's tea here. 7y
